Background: Epidemiological surveys have shown strong associations between housing and health but have been unable to show causal links. Intervention studies are, however, necessary to establish and explain causal links between housing and health. Evidence from such studies can be used to inform specific housing investment and predict health its health gains. Aims: To provide policy makers and researchers with a summary of the evidence regarding the health impacts of housing interventions derived from experimental and non-experimental studies of housing interventions. To make methodological recommendations for future research needs in the area. Objective: To systematically review the evidence for the effectiveness of housing improvement as a health improvement measure.
